Your blinders are working.Agriculture? You want to talk about agriculture?
I think farmers have been complaining most of my adult life about commodity prices. I can't discern a huge difference in current prices from 2016. The Chinese promised to buy U.S. agriculture products to alleviate trade conflict. The Chinese know full well that if they hold out that carrot and yank it back some farmers are going to buy into the Chinese trade story. The Chinese have been in and out of U.S. commodity market for decades. In the past, they would buy a whole lot of a commodity, hoard it and the watch overcapacity fuck up the market.
Incidentally, I just read an article about how soon the world won't be able to feed itself. I bet I don't have to look hard to find that same media outlet has an article on the low agriculture prices.
Agricultural producers reported they were not able to plant crops on more than 19.4 million acres in 2019. Chinese companies have halted purchases of US agricultural products
